Lions Super rugby head coach Swys de Bruyn has named an unchanged team to play the Hurricanes at Emirates Airline (Ellis Park) on Saturday.

The starting line-up is unchanged for this big encounter as the coach shows trust in the team that beat the Stormers last weekend having come out of that match without any injuries and the reputation intact.
